Sweetwater Wilderness  Ride


Sweetwater Wilderness Ride
Wyoming USA

Ride in the midst of the wide-open spaces of Wyoming, with 100-mile vistas stretching between the horizons. You’ll ride along the Continental Divide as it crosses the Red Desert or into the Honeycombs badlands wilderness of the Great Divide Basin. Find yourself along the banks of the Sweetwater River as it winds its way like a ribbon of refreshment through the high desert. This tall and uncut Country is the home of the true western perspective, with historic trails, rustlers’ cabins, abandoned Pony Express stations, gold mines, ghost towns and ancient Native American campsites. Cowboys, cattle and herds of wild horses are still a part of this landscape, much as they have been for over one hundred years. It is a vast landscape, bigger than Yellowstone National Park, of short bunchgrass and secret waterholes. Here, the mustangs have room to roam and run free, protected from civilization by the barrier of the Continental Divide. The fences are few and far between, "civilization" is a long way off and the freedom to ride is limited only by your desire. You will live out on the trail in a full-amenity, vehicle-supported, wilderness-style camp. Sleep out under the stars or in a roomy, weather-proof canvas tent. At nightfall, take your favorite beverage and join the crew around the campfire. Enjoy old-time and contemporary western music and poetry, and maybe a few good stories from your wranglers. Some of these tales might even be true!
